This book was released on 2017-12-15 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you a smoker, but still concerned about your general health? Kicking the smoking habit is very difficult. Studies show that addiction to tobacco is stronger than the addiction to either heroin or cocaine. While quitting smoking is certainly a worthwhile objective, it can be extremely difficult or even impossible for some people. However, fear not. This book by Dr. Health & Fitness can show you how, as a smoker, you can become healthier than many of today’s non-smoking Americans. As Dr. Health & Fitness points out, becoming healthier as a smoker can make the future transition to non-smoker much more realistic by gradually reducing the body's need for niсоtinе and the many оthеr addictive chemicals found in сigаrеttеѕ. Everything is easier when you are healthier and feel better. Following the guidelines in this book, such as keeping tabs on the levels of oxygen and antioxidants in your blood, taking a few natural supplements such as green tea extract, detoxing regularly through saunas or a massage, and adding a few vegetables to your diet can affect a real improvement in your general health and the health of your lungs. You will be happier, healthier, and perhaps in the future, readier to quit smoking completely. Following the guidelines in this book would be a great place to start.

Download or read book No Smoke Without Fire written by Brian B Humphreys and published by . This book was released on 2019-11-18 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Smelter explosion in the early hours of Aug 8th 2000 became a watershed moment for the company, its employees, family members and all residents of Flin Flon. Like 9/11, nothing would ever be the same again. We must always be open to rethinking the way we do things. Change must be constant. To go to work each day without getting hurt has to be an expectation we all have. In Flin Flon, the last fatality prior to the smelter explosion had been five years earlier. That had been the longest period between fatalities in the company's history. There has not been a work - related fatality in the 19 years since the explosion, but that is not to say the battle to create a harm-free workplace has been won. We could so easily have had fatalities many times over the years. Sometimes the outcome was a question of sheer luck or twist of fate, a matter of inches, or seconds making the difference between life and death. It is all the more important to revisit and communicate the important lessons learned from them. I have included many of them in the second part of this book under "Work Shouldn't Hurt" along with other examples I have experienced in my 49 years in the work force. Lessons can be learned every day. They can apply to everyone who goes to work. It doesn't matter if you are a CEO, Manager, supervisor or worker, everyone is an important cog in the wheel. Examples given and discussions throughout this book are not intended to demean or point a finger at any individual, group or company. They are purely used as learning opportunities to help people recognize and understand that sometimes it is only incredible luck or good fortune that they don't end up seriously injured, or even killed. The examples are mostly centred around heavy industry, but many similar occurrences lay dormant in many workplaces, and even outside the work environment. To reiterate, this book is not about blame or finger pointing. It is an attempt to capture and understand the circumstances that led up to the explosion and what goes into a recipe for such a disaster. Seldom is anything made from one ingredient. Similarly, a disaster is usually triggered by more than one single event or "ingredient". The fatality list that is included in this book demonstrates the tremendous sacrifice employees have made over the history of Hudson Bay Mining and Smelting. Many workplace safety and health regulations have been implemented as a direct result of lessons learned. The list does not cover the tremendous number of accidents that did not result in death but did inflict life-changing injuries. Every name on the list represents a son, brother, uncle, husband or father, and many represent every single one of those relationships, which left wives without husbands, children without dads.

Download or read book White Teeth written by Zadie Smith and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2003-05-20 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER • The blockbuster debut novel from "a preternaturally gifted" writer (The New York Times) and author of On Beauty and Swing Time—set against London's racial and cultural tapestry, reveling in the ecstatic hodgepodge of modern life, flirting with disaster, and embracing the comedy of daily existence. Zadie Smith’s dazzling debut caught critics grasping for comparisons and deciding on everyone from Charles Dickens to Salman Rushdie to John Irving and Martin Amis. But the truth is that Zadie Smith’s voice is remarkably, fluently, and altogether wonderfully her own. At the center of this invigorating novel are two unlikely friends, Archie Jones and Samad Iqbal. Hapless veterans of World War II, Archie and Samad and their families become agents of England’s irrevocable transformation. A second marriage to Clara Bowden, a beautiful, albeit tooth-challenged, Jamaican half his age, quite literally gives Archie a second lease on life, and produces Irie, a knowing child whose personality doesn’t quite match her name (Jamaican for “no problem”). Samad’s late-in-life arranged marriage (he had to wait for his bride to be born), produces twin sons whose separate paths confound Iqbal’s every effort to direct them, and a renewed, if selective, submission to his Islamic faith. “[White Teeth] is, like the London it portrays, a restless hybrid of voices, tones, and textures…with a raucous energy and confidence.” —The New York Times Book Review
Download or read book Vinyl A History of the Analogue Record written by Richard Osborne and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-02-17 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vinyl: A History of the Analogue Record is the first in-depth study of the vinyl record. Richard Osborne traces the evolution of the recording format from its roots in the first sound recording experiments to its survival in the world of digital technologies. This book addresses the record's relationship with music: the analogue record was shaped by, and helped to shape, the music of the twentieth century. It also looks at the cult of vinyl records. Why are users so passionate about this format? Why has it become the subject of artworks and advertisements? Why are vinyl records still being produced? This book explores its subject using a distinctive approach: the author takes the vinyl record apart and historicizes its construction. Each chapter explores a different element: the groove, the disc shape, the label, vinyl itself, the album, the single, the b-side and the 12" single, and the sleeve. By anatomizing vinyl in this manner, the author shines new light on its impact and appeal.
